Erm, Before you advertise yourself as a 2D artist you might want to make a few more examples... and practice a bit more.

last time i checked. Textures and concepts werent text and all mine were made custom. The only work on my site with images from google are the posters where 5 of them were part of a school project when i was limited to google for images. And most logo's are generally text/fonts.

Anyways, please do not post back here if you arent going to give me COMMENTS ON THE WORK OR CRITICISM

Well OK then, the work on here doesn't really have much detail in it. The MP4 player is just a basic square design, and the sword is very wobbly.

The sword was a quick drawing i scanned in and went over in colour in photoshop. As i said, i am going to do more concepts over the weekend so i might re-do that one

As for the MP4 Player. That was the design i was going for, a shiny
i-pod look that is a basic shape like the many i looked at before embarking on the design.

@shaun, pincho took the time to offer honest feedback, all of which i agree with. if you're going to post your work for public critique, please be prepared for something less than "oh, it's great!". you asked for comments and criticism; take any feedback, good and bad, and consider it. it's a big part of how you'll improve. if you sit there and defend it, as you've done, you're prone to get less honest feedback which will only stunt your growth as an aspiring artist.

good luck!

i have to agree with everyone else here, take the critique they've given you, and use it, think it over and improve..

though, i can tell you that the sword is acually a fine piece of concept wich i acually would use.
though this is true:

If you're going to design something electronic you have to show how the components fit inside as well as the case. If the components wont fit inside you have a useless box. I'm sure you could find a spec of an iphone pretty easily.
